From Basement Startup to $100M Exit ft. Alexis Sikorsky | Coffeez for Closers with Joe Shalaby

Coffeez for Closers with Joe Shalaby

This week on Coffeez for Closers, we’re joined by Alexis Sikorsky—UK-based entrepreneur, investor, and the brains behind a $100M+ exit in enterprise tech.

Alexis built his company from a basement in Switzerland… scaled to $12M in revenue… then nearly lost everything in the 2008 crash. But instead of folding, he mortgaged his home, fired half his team, and fought his way back—eventually selling to private equity and rewriting his future.

In this brutally honest episode, we cover:

• Firing people vs. losing millions

• How private equity really works

• How to build a company that sells

• Why most founders confuse motion with progress

• And why raising rich kids with grit is harder than it looks

Alexis now coaches founders through his Apex Method—helping them scale to 9-figure exits without losing their soul.

If you’re playing for legacy—not just lifestyle—this one’s for you.
